Hi there I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in the field for past 14 years. I believe in providing care with respect, compassion, sensitivity and in a non judgmental way. Life is full of challenges however, in my experience I have realized that most of my clients are equally resourceful. Time and time again I have observed that my clients often resolve their issues with guidance and support. Many of my clients have said that they feel heard and not judged for the decisions they make day in and day out, I believe this is my strength. I meet my clients where they are at and try to understand what they are dealing with. I take the time to understand your struggles and craft a treatment plan based on your abilities and strengths. If you are ready to usher in the change in your life, I am here to help. To book an appointment please reach out to my intake team at +1 (786) 755-1863 OR reception+Charuta8742@growtherapy.com

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Therapy enables one to analyze their mood, thinking, emotions and behavior as well as identify areas of distress and dysfunction. No problem is big or small, if it disrupts your well-being then it has to addressed. I strive at creating a safe space for my clients where they can feel safe and explore their painful feelings, analyze the dysfunctional patterns and together work on developing new healthy ways.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I use a mix of many treatment modalities, what we call an Integrative or Holistic approach. I believe there is no "one solution fits all"; I study each and every issue and craft solutions with the clients input. My approach encourages active partnership and ownership. I utilize CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Client Centered Therapy, Multi Cultural Therapy, Narrative therapy among other modalities. I heavily rely on my listening skills to understand what my client is trying to convey.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have extensively worked with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction and life changing events.
